Even as his Jab We Met actor Shahid Kapoor spoke of teaming up with him, Imtiaz Ali says he has no idea which venture was being referred to

Shahid Kapoor
Shahid Kapoor sent fans into a frenzy when he had said he would be teaming up with Jab We Met (2007) director Imtiaz Ali for a film. But, the project never took off. Now, the filmmaker says queries around the movie should not be directed to him because he never announced it in the first place. In December last year, Shahid had expressed excitement about teaming up with Ali for a new film with an "interesting" subject. The actor had said he would start shooting for it after wrapping up his upcoming release, Batti Gul Meter Chalu.
Soon after, there were reports that the project was shelved. Kapoor had apparently then told reporters that the film is "not happening this year" and they might "probably work on something else." However, when asked about reports regarding the film, Imtiaz said, "There will be more news like this because, the fact is, I keep meeting actors and there is always going to be some speculation. I never announced a film. I never said I am making a film. I never said I am working with Shahid Kapoor. So, now when people ask me about the film, I reply, 'Which film?' I never said it. Talk to the person who spoke about it. There's no truth to it," the director said.
